An hour of care is not an hour of wages.

When a price for in-home care looks higher than you expected, it helps to know what actually sits behind it: the worker in front of you, the travel time they are paid for, the clinical oversight of your plan, and the systems that keep it all safe and compliant.

Great Day at TAFE Meadowbank Aged Care Expo. Thanks to TAFE NSW for the invite; it's always great to meet students exploring a career in aged care and disability support.

A big shoutout to our own Apar, who spent the day speaking with future graduates about a career in care, exactly who our clients get to spend their days with.

A large new study of almost a million couples has found that spouses of people with dementia face a higher risk of developing it themselves. The researchers were clear that a higher risk is not the same as a certainty, and there are practical steps that help.

For carers, that means looking after your own health too: prioritising sleep, staying socially connected, managing cardiovascular health such as blood pressure, and accessing respite care regularly rather than waiting until burnout sets in.
